In quadrilateral ABCD, AD 1, BC.
3x+7
D
A
B
5x-9
What must the length of segment AD be for the
quadrilateral to be a parallelogram?
O 8 units
O 16 units
O 31 units
O 62 units

31 units

Step-by-step explanation:

If a quadrilateral has a pair of sides that is both parallel and congruent, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram.

Sides AD and BC are given as parallel.

If they are also congruent, then quadrilateral ABCD is a parallelogram.

3x + 7 = 5x - 9

-2x = -16

x = 8

AD = 3x + 7

AD = 3(8) + 7

AD = 31
